Prediction of aromatic and anti-aromatic behavior of organic compounds is a vitally important tool for students of chemistry at the graduate and post-graduate level. This manuscript presents identification of aromatic and anti-aromatic behavior of organic compounds from their non-aromatic nature excluding Huckel’s rule of aromaticity. For the prediction of such behaviour, the compound must be cyclic, planar with even (aromatic) or odd (anti-aromatic) number of A values, where [A = ¹b + e-p + 1 (constant)], here ¹b = number of ¹ bonds within the ring system and e-p = number of electron pair outside or adjacent to the ring system i.e. if the ring contains hetero atoms which can undergo delocalization and each negative charge if present may be treated as one pair of electrons.
